Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine. Set aside

Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out the dough and place the mound on the prepared cookie sheet. Place the cookies 2 inches apart. Give the dough a gentle press with your palm.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until just golden on the edges.
Remove from the oven and quickly and gently press in the M&M’s and the candy eyeballs.
Cool the Spooky Halloween Candy M&M Monster Cookies on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes. Using a large cookie spatula, move the cookies to a cooling rack.

M&M Monster Cookies Recipe Notes
- Avoid overbeating the eggs. This lessens the softness of a cookie.
- Be sure to remove the cookies from the oven the moment the edges turn golden to avoid over baking.
- The touch of flaked finish salt adds a great pop! I highly recommend it.
- Freeze the dough. Remove what you need from the freezer, bring to room temperature and bake as per instructions.
